I have it set yup for the notification to show as pop-up and as an alert. But Ionly get an in app notification as this attached picture show. It's the only notification caregory rha for some reason won't show as a pop-up alert.
You're the same OP that was having issues with pop-ups for word of the day. I offered advice in that thread but you never responded. I think the advice would be the same for this but since we had no reply we don't even know if that advice was good advice.
To fix Google's Word of the Day notifications not working, ensure you've enabled them within the Google app's settings and your device's system settings, and check for any "Do Not Disturb" modes or other OS-level restrictions that might be blocking them. If the problem persists, try clearing the Google app cache, restarting your device, or uninstalling and reinstalling the Google app.
